Lubosz is my first name not Kosnik :P
You can create a VM from Horizon and only specify the floating IP to be exactly 
that one. With private networks it’s not available from Horizon.
About getting every time the next IP it’s normal thing. After getting the roof 
for that specified IP range it will start looking for free IPs from the 
beginning of the range.

Hi Kosnik. thanks. Is there any way in the GUI for the user to do that, or they 
need to do cli 'neutron port-create ...' ?
Maybe I can pre-create the fixed IPs as admin, but how do a standard tenant 
user select the Ports just created ..  just as they select the Networks/Subnets 
during 'Launch an instance'?

I notice while provisioning that the IP number increments all the time, even if 
previous instances with lower IPs are deleted. What will happen eventually when 
I reach the last IP, will the lower number IPs be reused, or what would the 
behavior be? thx will

VM always will get the same IP from DHCP server. To prepare the VM with fixed 
IP you need using neutron create a port in specified network with specified IP 
and after that to boot new VM you’re specifying not net-id but port-id and it’s 
gonna work.

Hi,

I wonder if there's any way of allowing my users to select fixed IPs for the 
VMs? I do shared Provider networks, VLAN on Liberty/CentOS.

I know nova boot from the CLI or API has v4-fixed-ip=ip-addr option, however is 
there any way in the Dashboard where the User can select static IP?

I would also appreciate if anyone can explain the default dnsmasq dhcpd lease. 
Will a VM always get the same IP during it's life time, or it may change? thx 
will
